As kind of an extreme example of this, I didn’t get my Aspergers diagnosis until after my gender transition — because I hit all the female-typical symptoms and few of the male-typical ones.

Came here to ask exactly that.

Yeah, I use Marvel Puzzle Quest the same way. Whatever tool you need to keep it together is awesome.

So he’s essentially rotating out to the Board, and the previous CEO is rotating back in? Do I understand that correctly?

The only thing I was disappointed in was that I had heard it reported that she had a “full tax return”, so I thought it would include the backup schedules.

As an experienced Rachel watcher, it seemed pretty clear to me that there would be no answers to the questions she was bringing up in the tax returns — and that that was precisely why she was bringing them up then.

No, the whole point of the X-Files is that they were running with stuff that had already been out there for a decade or more. Read the Illuminatus! Trilogy sometime if you want full grounding in all the crazy of the time.

I mean, as fundamental principles go, I have to agree those are solid.

Just like mine is to correct “free rein”. Everyone always gets the horse idioms wrong.

They sent them to the White House ahead of time to get a statement from them as to whether or not they were genuine. The White House confirmed the numbers were correct.

I also started to get the feeling that it included the stories she had *planned* on reporting on today before the tax returns preempted them.

Sorry, not Kat. But hopefully your good vibes will reach her through the ether, and I’ll definitely take mistake as a compliment!

My best explanation is that in Japanese culture you are much freer to decide which set of cultural restrictions you want to abide by, with very little judgment attached, but once you do so you…

A lot more than you would think. One thing to keep in mind is that transwomen of a certain generation (say 45+) learned quickly that we would be denied medical treatment if we did not perform a certain level of femininity. I know people who were denied hormones for wearing jeans to their appointment instead of a…

Wait, you think Texans don’t eat kale? I grew up eating it there in the 70s and 80s.

It was not against the law for him to refuse to disclose his tax returns as a candidate.

If Hillary Clinton had been a man, she wouldn’t have had to wait so long to run, and so would have lost to George W Bush in 2004, instead of John Kerry. Coincidentally, on policy matters she’s pretty indistinguishable from John Kerry.

I heard people use it on panels with him all the time in the 80s — it may have dropped out of favor now that he’s respectable.

“Railroad” is George “RR” Martin’s longtime nickname.
